A Letter From Virginia.

G. w. McKown, of Gerardstown,
Va, who spent few days in Barton
county, in August and purchased a
section of fine land here writes to NJ.
Caraway: ''If l were not comfortably
located here l would certainly seek a
home i'll the beautiful prairies of Kan
sas. was favorbly impressed both
with the people and country. see no
reason why a man can not do well in
Kansas. You can farm with half the
expense we can. No commercial fer
tilizers to be used. Smith bills are
light. One man can do almost as much
as three men can do in Va, and last
but not least the rapid increase in the
valuation of lands renders investments
safe and sure. You have a good eli

A man in New Haven, Con, was in
sured for $50,0O,. Recently he paid
his premium of $500 for the ensuing
year one day before it was due. That
day he died. The $4,000 was paid
by the company, but this did not sat
isfy the family. They demand the
return of the $500. This is refused
on the ground that the man died
after banking hours. The sympa>
thies of generous public will go with
the insurance company.

This receipt can still be seen in the court
records at Placerville. Oh, he was wise
one, l can tell you, to thus make it appear
that the money was taken for the legitimate
purpose of war, rather than a bold private
robbery. Then the bandits quietly went off
TO bury the bullion, and then the stages
went on and gave the alarm, and two deputy
sherifs-Staples and Van Eaton-and
George G. Ranney, started in hot pursuit
after the robbers, some of whom they
found at the Somerset House taking
good nights rest, preparatory to an
early morning start. Deputy Sheriff
Staples, seeing the robbers, raised his gun to
fire, but fell dead, shot by Pool, whose own
face, however, was horribly mutilated by
Staples bullet, the entire left cheek being
torn away. The rest Of the gang escaped He
was taken prisoner and made confession
that implicated some sixteen well-l1nown
people They were arrested and cleared on
the ground that they were captured out of
their own county. The gang, however,
was broken up. Pool was convicted and
hanged. Ingram and Baker got out of the
country. The rest of the gang were disposed
of while making preparations to rob the

Well established, that consumption, If at

There is, however, no true and rational way
TO cure this disease, which is really scrofu-

purifying the blood. Keep the liver in per-

perry and up the middle of the back. Tn
ameteur dress maker will find this design
easily carried out, and can feel assured
that her simple dress is a stylish one
The wool overskirt may be made all il
one piece, with the selvage at the bottom
simply caught up in folds far back on
each hip, and draped to fall to two point:
; behind or else it may be shaped breadths
with two rows of stitching on the hem,
and soft Arab folds dropping from the
back of the belt, where the great fullness
is massed.
! -Modistes who copy French designs use
camel's hair and other soft twilled wool
the smooth faced cloths used by English
tailors. They are in solid colors for dressy
costumes, and in fine stripes or checks for
morning wear. The cancels hair cloth at
SO or 81 a yard make very rich dresses
when combined with velvet or plush, or
with all the accessories, such as vest and
panels, made of fur; indeed, the entire
Iow-r skirt, or all that is visible of it, is
made of fur, so that the dress is combi-
nation of wool and fur. A skirt of seal
skin is a luxury for midwinter, and is
worn nnder a short polonaise of camePs
hair of the same shade, or else OF dark
blue or messy green. A brown eamePs
hair dress has all the lower skirt that is
visible in the front and up the right side
covered with dark brown mink fur, aud
another OF drab wool is bordered ali around
with natural beaver, and there is . vest of
the beaver in the short coat made to wear
in the street. Leopard skin is used as q
vest and on the lower skirt of brown vel
veteen suits for young ladies. and there is
sling-sleeve cape, with a turb&n and
muff of the same spotted skins.
The home dress-maker who asks for
details of basques may choose between the
plain fronts, the vest front, and the tull
pleated froBt. Thus q plain front is liked
for st, lish camePs hair basques that have
trimming Of passementerie, such as dark
blue wool with black passemen-
terie in points on one edge. and with tiny
balls or buttons on the other straight edge.
The basque is pointed in front, short on
the hips, and has two box plests ending
the middle form. The pointed passemen-
terie extends down each side of the small
crocheted buttons that fasten the front
1.-THE points nearly meeting In the middle),
and also along the hips and back next to
the box pleats behind. The collar and
small cuffs are;covered with the passemen-
terie, and inside the neck and sleeves is
white feather-edged ribbon with a small
bow and ends. The fine checked camers
hair and the hair-striped woods are some
times cut bias both in front and back of
the basque. These are then tastefully
trimmed with rows of the wool pinked in
points alternating with plain points, laid
together in band, and passed around the
neck and down the front, tapping to the
left side like fichu. Inside this band is
a V-shaped vest of velvet of the same
shade as the plain wool or in contrast
Thus grey and b ne checked camePs hair
has plain greyish-blue velvet and greyish-
blue wool with it, and the pretty finish to
the neck and sleeves is loops OF white
satin ribbon only fourth OF an inch wide,
set on in three rows.
